Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - How do wives of prominent men respond when their husbands' careers are threatened Will they shed ethical and moral values to protect their men and luxurious life-styles For twenty-five years Diane, a physician's wife, monitored the behavior of doctors and their wives. In this small provincial southern town, any hint of an inappropriate liaison or a possible ominous event that might tarnish the reputation of a doctor, Diane and her two close friends, always quietly devised plans to set matters right. Diane set standards of conduct for the common good of all. At the first hint of a dark rumor, she responded wisely and she was brave. A physician, Antoine Oliveir and his wife Shelly, hoping to improve their lives, arrived from the Dominican Republic to take up residence in Diane's town. Soon, two diverse cultures clashed, eliciting a chaotic response within the medical community. Traditionally, Latinos only served as maids and waiters in this town. Shelly, the daughter of a wealthy and powerful Dominican general, responded with outrage to perceived ethnic prejudices. Dr. Oliveir, his credentials questioned, uncovers the vulnerable underbelly of this tight-knit society, giving him the means to expose scandals that would downgrade the status of the husbands of Diane and her friends. During Diane's college days, while majoring in political science, she discovered a kindred spirit in a 16th Century book written by the famous philosopher, Machiavelli. He wrote, ' - be on guard lest some foreigner equal in power should enter your city --.' Even though Machiavelli loved his culture more than his soul, Diane's obsessive admiration for him, guides her in developing a master plan to rid her community of the troublesome Oliveirs. …

Hardcover. Condition: gut. 2004. Die Erforschung islamischer Kunst begann in Europa vor über 100 Jahren, dabei leistete Deutschland einen wichtigen Beitrag. In dem reich bebilderten Buch wird erstmals versucht, islamische Kunst in Deutschland in ihrer Vielfalt bekannt zu machen. Präsentiert werden Kunst und Kunsthandwerk aller Gattungen, Kalligraphie, Miniaturmalerei und Münzen unterschiedlichster Epochen und zahlreicher Länder von Spanien bis Indien. Die Publikation gibt zudem einen Überblick über Wissenschaftsinstitutionen, die sich mit islamischer Kunst und Kultur beschäftigen. Einzelne Überblicksartikel informieren über die Wege islamischer Kunst nach Deutschland seit den Kreuzzügen und über die Entwicklung des Forschungsgebietes "Islamische Kunstgeschichte". Das Buch möchte anregen zu "Entdeckungen" islamischer Kunst in Deutschland, denn viele hervorragende, weltbekannte Einzelobjekte befinden sich in wenig bekannten und kaum erschlossenen Sammlungen. Neben den Beständen sind Kontaktpersonen, Adressen und öffnungszeiten verzeichnet. Dr. Joachim Gierlichs, seit 1994 Lehraufträge an den Universitäten Berlin, Halle und Bonn, zur Zeit Abschluß der Habilitationsschrift Holzarbeiten der Timuridenzeit in Iran und Mittelasien; Dr. Annette Hagedorn, Forschungen zum Thema Die Einflüsse der islamischen Kunst auf die europäische Keramik, Lehraufträge an den Universitäten Bonn, Mainz und Utrecht In deutscher Sprache. 192 pages. 25,4 x 18 x 1,8 cm.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - The short memoirs in the MEADOWOOD ANTHOLOGY gives us insight into the commonplace happenings and also the remarkable events that occurred in the lives of possibly the greatest generation in our American history. Living in Meadowood Retirement Community we have residents from a variety of professional and military backgrounds who have fascinating stories to write from the Great Depression forward to WW II, the Korean and Vietnam Wars including one on the early days of Arab Spring. We have memoirs from authors who experienced the grimness of wars and somehow were able to write with a subtle humor, and at times also with a sense of the ridiculous; as we read about one day in the life of a young woman, an Italian Resistant Fighter. We have one memoir by a resident that begins with a Jewish Russian ancestor of her husband being conscripted into the Czars Army. He eventually escaped to Israel. One half century later the descendents of this man find safety in America. These are only a few of many stories of victims persecuted for political or religious belief systems and who eventually find sanctuary in our country and later in Meadowood Retirement Community. 'Aging in Place', a charming expression we have coined, does not mean we exist in an invisible cozy cacoon. We have monthly lectures programmed by one of our retired professors who invites world famous academically acclaimed lecturers, who guide us through new international policies of countries in Europe, the Middle East and Asia. We also have residents who prefer to do their own 'thing'. One resident moved in and announced that he had never in 20 years had time to read a book. He had been one of the driving forces at NASA; as in sending a man to the moon. He now volunteers with Meals-On-Wheels. He still has not read his first book. Our miniature memoirs, our life stories, are the treasures we leave to our children: perhaps to give to their own.…
